The proposed site has access to winds all year round providing good cross circulation all year round. As seen in the wind rose, in figure 1, the site has breezes from most directions across the site. However the majority of which come from the South and South-East. While as seen in figure 2 humidity on the site is relatively high all year round, which plays an important role in the overall comfort and temperature of the whole climatic response. As refereed to in the Psychometric chart, refer to appendix 1, strategies for this climate include and are not limited to passive solar heating during colder months, thermal massing effects all year round with purging during night, and natural ventilation all year round.

EXISTING CLIMATIC STRATEGIES

As proposed by Fitzpatrick and Partners the massing of the towers are angled to make the most of the river views while interior spaces are enclosed via a giant glass atrium. Moving from North-East to South-West the towers drop down losing 2 levels each time, therefore massing away from the corner of Boundary Street and Montague Road. As seen in the shadow diagrams below the towers act as self shading devices to the interior courtyard in the summer months, however during winter the towers do not provide any shading to the glass atrium. Due to the materiality of the atrium the potential for this structure to become a giant glass house during any solar heating of the glazing is potentially quite dangerous.

12pm

9am

3pm

While also not benefiting from cross ventilation the entire ground plane of the building is closed behind glazing, limiting any potential for heating shedding. This is also not helped by the positioning of the site as it has limited potential to support wind flows.

Summer

Winter

The massing also causes potential problems for neighbouring parks and residential / industrial lots. The overshadowing of the entire development causes undue shadowing during winter months of parks nearby making them quite unpleasant and potentially cold. Additionally the lift core and service riser has been placed on the exterior of the building and therefore acts as a thermal mass to all the interior office levels. This can cause potential problems for internal heat control systems as loading will increase as exposure to this thermal mass is increased. Potential hazard is also cause by this as thoroughfares through the site pass by these lifts cause potential problems between people waiting for the lift and the public.

SPATIAL RELATIONSHIP Taking from the matrix the definitions and desires of individual spaces, the building as a whole will still need to establish a sense of place and connection between both inter and intra relationships. The building consists of three main functions the Super Structure, the Typical office layout, the Internal Atrium and the Retail level. Threshold between each of these is designed for minimal impact on the public, creating a constant flow between each is important in establishing a building that works for its occupants. This minimal threshold design is generated through the sophisticated control of Lighting, Acoustics and Thermal systems.

Super-Structure; controls systems along all voids in the systems are controlled either independently or as grouped systems. As per facade details, the system is a mix of louvered control panels regulating the climate of the atrium. Typical floor office space; connected via catwalk-ways to main atrium. These spaces act as threshold environments as subtle change is created between both spaces, due to light, thermal and acoustic systems. Internal Atrium; acting as the main artery of the entire building. Each tower acts independently in this sense having control mechanisms to individual tenancy requirements, however the atrium is control overall by building manager as the interim between all levels. Enclosed on either side by fire escapes. Retail Level; provides multiple shops and through access links between alternate sides of the site. This level is recessed below the street level acting as a retreat from the road side. Due to the lowering of the retail level allows for cross ventilation across the entire ground floor.

Each of which plays a major role in defining individual spaces and catering to their requirements, therefore creating consistent gradient flow between them requires spatial transition between each.

Space gained via the removal of tower e creates room to expand local park

SITE MASSING Developing from the critique of the previous proposal for the site, the new development maximises the most out of the existing conditions to create a building with minimal impact to the surrounding environment. Massing away from the corner of Boundary Street and Montague Road the angle of which maximises the potential for solar access to this park during winter. While additionally shading the adjacent buildings from direct solar heating of the afternoon sun during summer. This massing strategy, as per shadow diagrams, alleviates the effects of overshadowing on the surrounding area due to the angle of winter sun. While also taking the benefits that were provided by self shading from the western sun. Additionally self shading is provided to the internal atrium during summer months helping to regulate solar heating gain. While in winter solar access in enabled helping to regulate temperature during this time, stabilising the climate controls. While the building massing enables certain control for solar gain, an additional extension of the floor plate beyond the glazing allows for overshadowing of the eaves. This extends the time in which these windows can be open, without having to use other building control systems. The superstructure in all this plays an important role as well in regulating the environmental control systems of the building , as the louvred and water control systems help mitigate un wanted solar gain.

FACADE DESIGN The Super-Structure plays an important role in the control system of the entire building, control both the direct solar gain of the building and cross circulation through the internal atrium. As part of three types of control systems the louvred facade acts independently in parts and others controlled via tenancy control systems. Regulating the desired solar gain is done through direction of the louvres along the entire facade or in parts for more direct control. Additionally the whole system acts as a giant water tank, holding and storing water when desired to actively cool and chill air passing through the facade. This system is connected to all storm water collection on the site, and can be purged at any time to be used as grey water for the buildings utilities. Overall this system acts as the vanguard for the entire building control system allowing for the skin of the building to adjust to climatic conditions as they arise, while also allowing for individual preference to dictate how this system works.

Tinted glazed windows between superstructure, louvres then placed on top of them. Louvres made out of solar panels, designed on tracks to follow the sun. Waterproof from glazing line, sealed and lined, Glass has 1:20 slope which pours storm water into the superstructure. Guttering inside the structure takes the water through the facade into basement storage Treated timber louvres used to circulate and control airflow from main atrium. Air is carried across rooftop terrace through louvres to exterior. These louvres are control via building manager system that analysis air flow and temperature on the ground and retail levels Louvres here are controlled via their adjacent level with electronic control system, this controls the angular direction of the Louvres along the facade allow the controls of light levels. Louvres are treated timber louvres to match those above.

During rain the system along the roof is shutdown, however to control airflow the side facade is opened up so how and humid air is transfered out of the atrium As air passes through atrium and exposed to either the plant along the ground floor or plant along the internal core and alike, the air is heated. This then forces the air to rise up and through the facade control system, and in the process shedding the heat from the inside of the building.

Trees along the ground plane, when planted on the retail air, slow wind moving through the open ground plane and therefore helping redirect it and enable it to act as a heat transfer for the retail area. The retail area is lowered down to allow for total cross circulation of the ground plane, while additionally helping to create environments were avoidance from intruding sounds is maximized.

OVERALL SECTION Extended floor plates on the office allows for some solar protection due to this extension of the eaves, this in combination of the facade control system allows for complete control of thermal gain on each floor

As air passes through atrium and exposed to either the plant along the ground floor or plant along the internal core and alike, the air is heated. This then forces the air to rise up and through the facade control system, and in the process shedding the heat from the inside of the building.

When the louvered system is closed solar radiation is absorbed in the form of electricity through louvered solar panels that are along the roof facade. When this system is open air and light is allowed into the atrium providing indirect and or direct solar lighting to the retail levels

As heat is generated by people using the retail area and the heat generated from the mechanical systems used in the retail are the heated is transfered either through convection of air as it moves through the space.

ATRIUM DETAIL DESIGN

ATRIUM SPATIAL RELATIONSHIP The Atrium, as the entrance to the building supports all other spaces from its placement and design. Integrating the thresholds as discussed in the overall spatial relationships, the atrium transitions between Retail area, to individual shops, to bars and cafĂŠs, to main circulation artery of the building. This is achieved through the application of Lighting, Acoustic and thermal controls. Utilised in different ways in different spaces as the systems controls are either independent of the whole building management system or combined. While the independent shops are controlled via independent mechanical systems, the entirety of the remaining space is passively controlled via the building management system. Therefore the mechanism to control the threshold between them and the thresholds themselves most act in a way that is required via the Australian Standards and functional requirements.

Ceiling Feature is applied to all of the underside of the level 01 slab, this is treated to absorb sound as to mitigate reverberation through the space and the atrium. Additionally this creates and interesting contrast to the structured ground floor while also connecting to the facade as a motif. The cafes or restaurants bars are placed between the stairs against the external wall. Because these are lowered spaces against these walls they are protected against most intrusive sound, while also connecting and enjoying the atrium space. The lift lobby and entire atrium create, as described previously a direction for natural circulation, allow convection of heat below. Though this space also ties in the retail to the office functions above creating an open space to act as a threshold between all these elements. Retail Level; provides multiple shops and through access links between alternate sides of the site. This level is recessed below the street level acting as a retreat from the road side. Due to the lowering of the retail level allows for cross ventilation across the entire ground floor. The individual break up off the shop extends these transitions and threshold creating unique controlled environments for each. Independent of other shops control systems this allows tenants to create there own sense of unique space to each environment.

Connection of the space to the exterior and therefore public realm is done in a way that allows for ease between both public, public- private, private public and private. This threshold in itself creates a space that is inviting to the general public and also provides something to the public realm.

GROUND FLOOR RETAIL LEVEL

THERMAL: ATRIUM I,II The atrium is passively cooled via cross circulation from the ground plane. This is achieved via lowering the retail area below the ground level this also allows for the circulation of air across the plant from the retail area. This area is not heated in any way by mechanical systems and is rather controlled by the building control systems that maintain and control the roof facade louvre system either allowing light into the space or not. This then heats the concrete floor acting as a thermal mass to heat the are as required. Due to this the concrete, the ground maintains a thermal conductivity of 1.4 W/m2K As cool air passes over the shops, the heat generated via the shops and occupants heats the air around it which then rises into and through the atrium

THERMAL: INDIVIDUAL RETAIL IV The Individual shops are cooled via a Displacement Ventilation system. This provides cooling to each individual shop, that can be controlled independently The air is delivered through flexible floor grills located inside the room. The room is then insulated via the double glazed walls.

The due point between summer months is on average about 21.4 degrees therefore the system will require that limits are placed on the temperature control during these months to avoid damage created by due.

6mm Low E glass / 50mm air gap / 6mm low E glass with timber frames; approximate U value 1.8 The conditioned air is then vented out of the building through the above louvre system. This then via convection is transferred away through the atrium, this is achieved via natural circulation. Due to due point during Summer the internal mechanical air-conditioning controls require limiter to prevent moisture build up on surface of glass

As heat rises, the hot air is collected and then evacuated from the shop via mechanical ducting which is feed into the retail, which is then cooled via natural convection and cross ventilation

ACOUSTIC: ATRIUM IV Background Sound

Intruding Sounds

This results in a reverberation time;

Main causes of background sound come from the roads and from aircraft. These are ideally minimised as much as possible to provide a comfortable space.

Intruding sounds can either be taken as aircraft under certain circumstances however it has been advised that this will be taken as a background sound due to the frequency in which they are expected.

These sounds are masked by the majority of the building however both enter through openings in the building. The street level is mildly masked, however the aircraft sound is disrupted by the control systems along the facade at roof level reducing the sound down to 47.3 dBA, when open at 45o, when shut the sound is unnoticeable. Diffused sounds through out the space are majority people talking and footsteps, though these do not effect the space.

REFER TO INDIVIDUAL RETAIL DRAWINGS

Reverberation Due to the large volume of the space, 167750m2, considerable effort has to be taken to control the reverberation time. The main surfaces consist of; Glazing: 6470m2 Concrete: 8752m2 Specialised Ceiling finish: 65291m2

This is mostly the result of the specialised ceiling finish, consisting of 6.5mm with 19% open area, 25mm glass-wool and 25mm air-gap battens placed along the underside of level 01. Speech Intelligibly The desired speech intelligibility of 2-5m is achieved under background sound circumstances however, when foreground sounds are taken into account, as per appendix, speech becomes more difficult.

The main surfaces consist of;

Speech Intelligibly

Glazing: 120m2 Concrete: 50m2 Plasterboard Ceiling: 50m2 The inventory of the shop: 40m2

The desired speech intelligibility of 2-5m is achieved under all recorded circumstances and is achievable.

The resulting reverberation time is; 125Hz 250Hz 500Hz 1KHz 2KHz 4KHz .8 1.0 1.2 1.2 1.2 1.2

Reverberation

The result is a conservative one as the result will vary with the tenants choice of inventory inside the store. The numbers calculated for this are quite conservative and exclude variables such as the materiality of the inventory.

Due to the varying spaces in which the shops occupy, to be safe in calculating the reverberation the largest room has been tested, this room is 200m3.

Overall this space fit the Australian standards for required commercial spaces, while also provide a higher quality, then recommended.

ACOUSTIC: CAFE IV Background Sound

Main causes of background sound come from the roads and from aircraft. These are ideally minimised as much as possible to provide a comfortable space. Montague Road: Boundary Street: Aircraft flyover:

70 dBA LAeq 67 dBA LAeq 78 dBA LAmax

These are masked through the positioning and locating of the shop away from these sounds. Additionally the design and integration of the roof on the sound considerably reduces the effects. Due to the majority of low frequency background sounds the roof feature has been built as follows; 5mm plywood / 50mm air space filled with glass-wool

Overall the sound is masked by the Partition walls and is reduced to 25.1 dBA. However when these slats are opened up the sound is increased to 67.6 dBA. Though due to the considerable foreground sound this should be masked.

Due to the varying space under which the cafe can operate a lenient size has been used to measure, this room is 75m3. The main surfaces consist of; Openings: 10m2 Roof Feature: 50m2

Intruding Sounds

The resulting reverberation time is;

125Hz 250Hz 500Hz 1KHz 2KHz 4KHz .4 .4 .6 .7 1.0 1.0 The result is a conservative one as the result will vary with the tenants choice of inventory inside the cafe. The numbers have not been calculated as it is not know what the end result of these spaces will become, however what is provided is sufficient for most cases.

Overall this space fit the Australian standards for required commercial spaces, while also provide a higher quality, then recommended.

Speech Intelligibly The desired speech intelligibility of 2-5m is achieved under background sound circumstances however, when foreground sounds are taken into account, as per appendix, speech becomes more difficult.

LIGHTING: ATRIUM The Atrium is lit mainly by natural lighting that pours in through the top and sides of the space. This is controlled from building control systems that determine the resulting solar radiation entering the space. Due to the surfaces along these spaces the internal lighting becomes deflected and scattered lighting up the majority of the ground floor retail. This either occurs due to indirect or direct lighting. This indirect lighting scheme is what is the preferred method of lighting for the space during day hours where internal luminaire are used when required at different levels. Due to eventual solar shading the lighting scheme of the interior is slowly substituted with artificial lighting until sufficient lighting is achieved by natural light, as per Australian standards. This happens at a gradient level for different towers. Though what has been modelled has shown that by 3pm in the afternoon 50% dimming is required while 9 am in the morning is required, this of course does not represent the whole year. The artificial lighting scheme has been designed to create adequate lighting as per Standards for circulation paths, though additionally lighting is provided to certain areas for the retention of threshold easing. As per the night time scheme more lux is provided to spaces connecting to offices so changes in lighting brightness is not painful. This is then continued down the building as lighting for the catwalks start at 250Lux and the ground floor is set to achieve 150Lux at 100% dimming. Due to the design pushing the atrium below ground level, the space has been designed to be as light as possible, to generate the feeling of a secure, safe and enjoyable environment

LIGHTING: RETAIL

Lighting to the retail space is done in a way to lighten the effect that the below ground level area has on the space as a whole. The feature ceiling as created for sound reverberation in the atrium is utilised to create a design feature that would otherwise be a boring underneath of the level above.

Standard ceiling hanges / batten system attached to level 01 slab Plasterboard ceiling painted black ZUMTOBEL TECTON luminarie 6.5mm plywood with 19% open area, 25mm glasswool and 25mm air gap batens

This is done in a way to hide the actual luminaire while providing sufficient lighting to the standards, as per Australian standards. This linear system diverts the eye from the road into and underneath the building into and therefore into the retail area. The long lines of which guide the space along the underside of the building The effect this has then on the materiality of the battened panelled system creates ripples along the ceiling feature. Designed in a way so to not feel crushed under the mass of the building the lights illuminate the ceiling creating a feature that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just provide lighting to the retail area, but also provides a sense of comfort and place to the environment.

LIGHTING: RETAIL

The lighting scheme for the retail area is divided between two cycles, in which indirect daylighting plays a major role. As the space is underneath the main floor plate of the tower, natural lighting only comes through openings along each of its edges. During daytime, indirect natural lighting maintains the required lux levels for the circulation space raising it well above 500Lux. Though due to the spaces design and position the space still feels gloomy due to the over head slab of level 01. That is why during day hours the artificial lighting remains on to lighten up the ceiling and give the impression of it glowing. This is done with the lights only at 10% their overall output.

Day time Natural lighting scheme, per DiaLux

Night time artificial lighting scheme, per DiaLux

During night the space requires artificial lighting at all times. This is provided via the luminaries as discussed previously. The lighting overall is elevated to quite a bright light to assist with shopping, but also to generate a sense of comfort in the environment. Ranging between 350Lux to 250Lux the space is considerably lighter then the atrium through this is due to the corridors and tighter circulation spaces located here. Additionally to the lighting provided in this analysis the individual shops have spill lighting coming from there shops, through the glazed partitions. This has not been calculated in these results shown here.

LIGHTING: INDIVIDUAL RETAIL

The lighting scheme for the individual retail has been shown here for the largest shop in the total design proposal. The shop lighting design is done under the premise that each tenants has their own needs and desires and will each arrange things differently as per they require. Therefore the luminaire used are ERCO Compact Double wall-washer that enable the tenant to set up their shop however they want. As the overlapping lighting angles enable layouts to change as lighting is directed and diffused through out the space. Night time artificial lighting scheme, per DiaLux

As per the reflected ceiling plan LN indicates the location of this lighting system. As per the Australian Standards the lighting scheme has provided adequate coverage of the space, averaging about 250Lux in most spaces. It is assumed that with tenant will fit out any desired feature lighting treatments, would be done with pendent lighting, and or task lighting. While the ceiling has also been installed as suspended plasterboard ceiling, this enables the tenant to also quickly install any lighting as they desire. Additionally the lighting from the shop supplyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spill lighting to the corridors and circulation space around the shop.
